In the midst of a new school year that could see students not step into a physical classroom, Microsoft is bringing Minecraft: Education Edition to Chromebooks.
Chrome OS Minecraft: Education Edition will allow cross-platform play with Windows, iPad, and Mac versions. Students will be able to interact and collaborate on projects regardless of the device they use. Microsoft is updating the software to include 11 new STEM lessons as well as a Minecraft world that teaches students all about pollination and bees. A new library of lesson plans and the ability to track learning abilities are also part of the update as well.
According to the company, Chrome OS, iPad and Windows devices will automatically install the update. Mac users will need to download the update manually. Schools that already use Minecraft: Education Edition in their classrooms won't need to worry about changing their subscription. Microsoft will include the Chrome OS version to its Microsoft 365 for Education A3 and A5 licenses.
